The binary quadratic equation of the form y 2  Dx2  1 where D is non –square positive integer has been studied by various mathematicians for its non-trivial integral solutions when D takes different integral values [1-5]. In this context one may also refer [4, 10]. These results have motivated us to search for the integral solutions of yet another binary quadratic equation y 2  20 x 2  4 representing a hyperbola .A few interesting properties among the solution are presented. Employing the integral solutions of the equation consideration a few patterns of Pythagorean triangles are obtained.

Whose general solution ~ xn , ~ yn  of (2) is given by, ~ xn 

where,

f n  (9  2 20 ) n 1  (9  2 20 ) n 1 g n  (9  2 20 ) n1  (9  2 20 ) n1

1.1 Notations

Applying Brahmagupta lemma between x0 , y0  and ~ xn , ~ yn  the other integer solution of (1) are given by,

t m,n : Polygonal number of rank n with size m Pn m : Pyramidal number of rank n with size m

Prn : Pronic number of rank n Sn : Star number of rank n Ctm,n : Centered Pyramidal number of rank n with size m GFn (k , s) : Generalized Fibonacci sequence of rank n GLn (k , s) : Generalized Lucas sequence of rank n
